Sameer Rizvi Stars With 90 As Delhi Capitals Beat Mumbai Indians By 6 Wickets

Impact substitute Sameer Rizvi continued his red-hot form with another fine half-century as an all-round Delhi Capitals outclassed Mumbai Indians by six wickets in their first home game of the 2026 IPL season on Saturday. Chasing 163, the 22-year-old Rizvi took apart the MI attack with a fluent knock studded with seven fours and as many sixes. After suffering a top-order wobble for the second successive game, Delhi Capitals steadied through a 66-run stand for the third wicket between Rizvi and Pathum Nissanka, who scored 44 off 30 balls. This was after Delhi Capitals bowlers dominated to restrict Mumbai Indians to a modest 162 for six despite stand-in skipper Suryakumar Yadav's a patient half-century. Capitals' Mukesh Kumar did well by rattling the Mumbai top-order.
